Preparation
Step 1
Traditional Directions
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Cut all vegetables and potatoes, and place everything except mushrooms in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl combine and whisk the ingredients for the marinade.
Toss the marinade over the vegetables. Season with salt and black pepper.
Transfer marinated vegetables to a sheet tray. Arrange the vegetables to minimize overlap.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for 15 minutes, then add the mushrooms to the tray. Move the vegetables around a bit to ensure even browning.
Check the vegetables after 30 minutes, and test for doneness (not hard, but not too soft). If necessary, roast for another 10 - 15 minutes.
Final step is to broil the vegetables for 3 - 5 minutes. This will allow let them to get a little bit more color, as well as caramelize the natural sugars.
Pull from the oven and transfer immediately to a serving dish. Garnish with rosemary sprigs.
